RebeccaApril 2016

Sandra was a wonderful host. The home is comfortable, the room was great, and the coffee was fantastic!! Sandra is wonderful to talk to and helpful in providing recommendations for restaurants, transportation, etc. Highly recommend! One additional note, if you like Thai food Pinto's Noodle and Rice is a great place to eat. Best wishes!

BillyOctober 2015

Sandra is a very nice host. We enjoyed a lot talking with her. Her breakfast is wonderful. The neighborhood is amazing, which definitely worths spending more time than you planned.

JingxiongJune 2016

it was a great first experience to stay with air b&b. Sandy is a very nice host. She were having breakfast with us everyday, and even cooked us a Taiwanese style fried egg. We also talked to her pretty daughter. I have to say it's so good to stay with her! The room is nice and clean; the restroom is outside the bedroom, not a ensuite one.

LeiMay 2016

My stay at Sandra's was fantastic. She could not have been more pleasant and the townhome was very nice. The location (Wilmette) was a very peaceful suburban village and her home was close to a number of shops, restaurants, as well as Northwestern University. She had breakfast ready for me in the a.m. and overall, it was just a great stay and I will return.

ThomasSeptember 2015

Sandra was a wonderful host. I stayed a whole month with her and she did everything to make me feel at home. She is very pleasant person to talk to but although respects your privacy. She helped me to make the best out of my stay by pointing out local exhibitions, shops, restaurants, and events. The room is very nice, comfortable, and quiet. It has its own bath room. Wilmette is a cute little village and Sandra's house is close to the beach which is nice if you like to go for walks or runs at the beach. It is also very close to Linden station which is convenient if you want to take the train to North Western University (that takes only two stations) or to Chicago downtown. I can highly recommend staying with Sandra.

JudithApril 2016

Good place to stay. Sandra is a friendly person, a good host and a prompt and clear communicator. The room is comfortable, the house is pleasant and the location is 10 minutes on foot from the Baha'i House of Worship and even less to the CTA Purple Line. I plan to stay here again.

Comfy private bedroom and bath in an artist's home with European feel. Access to the kitchen and backyard. Near cafes, beach, and roads and trains that whisk you to the Windy City. Anastasia is a multi-lingual host and composer, author, artist.

Comfy private bedroom and bath in an artist's home with European feel. Access to the kitchen and backyard. Near cafes, beach, and and roads and trains that whisk you to the Windy City. Anastasia is a multi-lingual host and composer, author, artist.
My house is close to the lake and to the expressway that goes to the airport. An amazing tree sanctuary is down the street. There are two small shopping malls within walking distance.
My guests have access to my house and to a state-of-the-art screening room in the basement with eclectic dvd's. The kitchen, living room, dining room and backyard is shared. I have two baby grand pianos and the only inviolable rule is no glasses or dishes with liquids or food on the piano!
I am often teaching piano at a music school or performing, but I would love to share some tea or a very quick meal occasionally...I am very busy at home!
I love the park across the street and the neighbors. We have a lot of trees and it is very quiet at night. I also enjoy seeing films at the old-fashioned movie house-- the Wilmette Theatre. I am also a block away from the community center where they have a great fitness place.
I have a free space in my driveway for guest parking. There is a bus stop two steps away from my house that leads to a major transit hub where one can conveniently get to the airport by bus or train.
I want my guests to have a wonderful home away from home!

Staying at this home is a destination experience in and of itself - especially for art lovers. Anastasia is a walking ball of talent, creativity, curiousity, musicality - I can't say enough about her. She is a very talented woman and her home is tastefully decorated with her original creations. Although breakfast wasn't included in the price, Anastasia provided a range of cereals, breads, teas, etc. Her little dog is a joy. Really, the photo of the bedroom doesn't do the residence justice. You will love it! Prepare to be inspired.

eileenJuly 2014

Anastasia and her boyfriend had a warm welcome for me. This is a lovely nice place. Everything was exactly as described. Anastasia is a lovely host and has great stories to share if you're willing to listen.

ErikMarch 2015

A cozy house to stay in and Anastasia was very friendly and helpful. The artworks and interesting items throughout the house were awesome.

IanJuly 2014

Anastasia was an amazing host! She went above and beyond the call of duty, from our wonderful talks about music, philosophy, and writing, to introducing me to her friends, to making extraordinary pieces of food-art, to accepting me back when my flight got delayed, it's been an all around wonderful experience! We parted great friends, I would definitely stay by her again!

LevMay 2014

Anastasia is the best host i have ever had! She is a wonderfully warm, sweet, and interesting person! Her home is comfortable, cozy and charming; filled with books and music; very welcoming! i thoroughly enjoyed my stay there!

RebekahNovember 2016

I had a wonderful stay with Anastasia and Hannes. They were warm and welcoming and full of great stories. And every so often Anastasia would fill the house with beautiful piano music. She also loves to cook and is generous about sharing. The house is in a nice part of Wilmette with plenty of shopping conveniently close by. Wilmette town centre has good local spots for food. Removed from Chicago city proper, but quieter for that. The northern suburbs are full of big wonderful houses and old trees. About a 10 minute drive to Lake Michigan and wonderful beaches. I would certainly recommend this as a place to stay and would go back myself!

JessicaSeptember 2016

We stayed for 11 days with Anastasia and it was a great pleasure! The house was very beautiful and Anastasia a great help at the arrival and during the stay! It was so cool that Anastasia took us around the area in her car and showed us some lovely places for good shopping and dining. Her cute little dog Moxie is adorable! We had such great fun with her and her friends and we were very happy to stay at this wonderful place close to Chicago city. You will love and enjoy your stay!

VanessaAugust 2014

Anastasia was Brilliant and full of life when I showed up! She came back from a wedding she was playing at to make sure I had everything I needed! Room was quite and clean she left a toothbrush and toothpaste for me (which I actually needed)! There were clean towels and snacks! I will stay again! Thank you Anastasia!

Elsa is a very gracious host. I highly recommend staying here to others!

MichaelNovember 2016

Nice person and Nice place =)

ChingWenJanuary 2016

Elsa was welcoming and the room has a nice, double bed with soft comforter. Toiletries and private bathroom very nice. Window opened to courtyard. Near all restaurants, train and shops. Lovely stay, nice host. I recommend this place.

SandyAugust 2015

Elsa is a nice person and gives directions to everything you need in the neighbourhood. The Metra is less than 2 mins away and the Jewel grocery store is a quick 10 mins walk. Bathroom is next door to the room and the room has lots of her stuff and her computer, which she might need to access if she is in the house. So she would actually prefer guests who are staying for a few days to take the other room instead (which is in another listing she also has).

Si MinOctober 2015

The room is small, but does have a desk which you share with the host. The bed is a futon, but was fine for one person.

RonaldJune 2016

Elsa was a kind host, I felt like being home. I would definitely recommend her.

AlaaJune 2016

Elsa's place was great to stay at while I was moving to Chicago. The listing was accurate and the room was spacious and nice. She upgraded me to the larger room as she had no one else staying there for most of my stay. She made me welcome with good communication and instruction when I arrived, even providing access to parking. She was engaging and I enjoyed chatting with her when I arrived home in the evening and equally allowed privacy when I was ready to go to my room. I recommend staying with Elsa if visiting Chicago or the area she lives.

It comes fully equipped with coffee maker, toaster oven, tea kettle, stovetop, refrigerator, and microwave in the kitchenette, and all linens and towels. Anything else you may need can be borrowed from our kitchen.
Guests will have full access to the entire basement of the house. Besides the garden apartment, there is a recreation room with pool table, fireplace and flat screen TV. There is a sleeper sofa should you want to travel with your family, and we can provide additional mattresses as needed. You are also welcome to enjoy your morning coffee or sun downer on our front porch, one of the most spectacular porches in Wilmette. Feel free to use our grill if you wish. Access to WiFi is included.
One of us will be home or a phone call away to offer recommendations and information to help you during your visit to Chicago.

Our house is two short blocks away from the Northwestern football stadium, so is an ideal place to stay if you are planning on attending a game. It has easy train access to all locations around the city. Wilmette is an old Chicago suburb with brick roads, old trees and squirrels abound. You will wake up to the sound of the birds outside your window. It is safe, tranquil and close to the beach and the Bahai temple. There are two grocery stores within easy walking distance as well.
There is ample street parking in front of the house. We are also a short walk from the Linden Purple line train stop and the Central St in Evanston METRA stop.
The house is within walking distance to the Northwestern football stadium. For families moving new students into Northwestern, it is just a short drive away. It is also a short walk to the Linden Purple Line train station and the Central Street, Evanston METRA station. We do have two small dogs. They do not have access to the garden apartment. There is a small pond in the garden that is filled in the summer. Guests with small children should never lose sight of them if they are out exploring the garden.

We had a great experience with Helen. Her space was quiet, immaculate and conveniently located near the train and the lake. She was easy to communicate with and was helpful with anything we needed. We would definitely recommend this apartment. Thanks, Helen!

RaurieNovember 2015

The host tried to make us feel welcome but the place itself is not ok for long term. No kitchen, lots of bugs, no light, bad airflow ( it is a garden apartment.) You can hear every creak of the floorboards, every sound from upstairs. :(

KimberlyJuly 2016

Helen and Rick were very welcoming, and it was an incredible space to stay. There was plenty of space to sleep, eat, and a great rec room for hanging out. They were generous enough to let us use their grill, firepit, and yard. Their house is also very close to the Northwestern football stadium for the game we were attending. Overall our group's experience was better than we ever expected going in. Thanks Helen and Rick!

AustinOctober 2015

This is a great place to stay. Helen is an extremely gracious and welcoming hostess. The location is fabulous in a beautiful part of Wilmette. It's a very large space, with a lot of amenities.

Mari RoseMay 2016

It is a in nice neighborhood.

BokaiSeptember 2016

Helen is a great host! She welcomed us with detailed instructions, left a delicious bottle of wine, and for breakfast, some tasty homemade meusli, good coffee and tea and even some fresh milk and OJ in the fridge. The space is very large and comfortable, with all the appliances and kitchenware you need and the location can't be beat. The neighborhood is lovely and very close to NU, which was our main field of operation.

LorenaSeptember 2015

We had an excellent experience at Helen's house. The house is located in a beautiful neighborhood with treelined streets and stately homes, not too far from several restaurants in the downtown part of Wilmette and a great playground. The apartment is quite spacious and fit our needs perfectly. (And Helens's homemade muesli was really excellent.) We would have loved to stay longer, but it was already booked. We will definitely stay at Helen's when we visit Chicago again.

SuzanneJune 2016

The host met me at the time we agreed on and gave a thorough tour of the apartment. All the amenities necessary for a comfortable stay are at hand. The accommodations are very spacious and clean. While breakfast is provided, all of the kitchen equipment necessary for food preparation is available for those wishing to save on meals. Our stay was quite pleasant and despite time conflicts, we did manage a very enjoyable visit with Helen and her husband, Rick; truly a hospitable couple. I would recommend this location for those wishing to visit Northwestern University, or as a quiet retreat for big city excursions. The El is a short walk away; the Metra a little farther. Either is a convenient way to access all the excitement that downtown Chicago has to offer.

Our stay at Leanna's place was great. The home is very clean, and close to downtown Chicago and the surrounding areas. Our stay worked out perfectly for my family and I during my busy wedding weekend.

Andrea & George October 2016

We couldn't have asked for a better host for our stay! The townhouse was extremely clean, with extremely comfortable beds and in a perfect location.

BradNovember 2016

The listing was very accurate and it was a nice neighborhood. Beautifully remodeled and up to date. Would stay again!

EffieNovember 2016

We really enjoyed our stay! The neighbourhood was quiet and safe. There lots of amenities near by, which was great for people who aren't familiar with the area. It's also a short drive to transit into the city of Chicago. Our host was quick to respond to questions and suggestions and had a very friendly demeanor. We would definitely request her place again and recommend to others.

BethanOctober 2016

Lanna was great. She answered our questions within hours if not minutes of writing her. She was honest in her listing and even sent more pictures when we requested them. She listed the place accurately and everything was better than what we expected. The place was newly remodeled and all the furniture and linens were brand new and clean. We stayed there with 4 couples for the Nebraska vs. Northwestern game, and everyone was comfortable and pleased with the accommodations. Neighborhood seemed friendly and was close to interstate. Good carryout pizza shop right behind the place too. Within a few miles of the purple line to downtown Chicago. Overall we thought this place was a good value and had a nice stay.

GingerSeptember 2016

Sweet town house, fair price for 5 people living in Chicago. And it's not too far away from views.

BingcanOctober 2016

If you need a nice, quiet, and clean place to stay near north suburb of Chicago, this place is a must!! I booked one week stay for my in-laws who visited for our wedding, and they were in love with this place. Airbnb posting of this place couldn't be more accurate! This place has everything you need to stay comfortable. It is also easy to access Interstate-94 to get to downtown Chicago (the place is located right next to an exit). There are also Walgreens and other stores/restaurants conveniently located within walk-able distance as well. Very convenient check-in/out process since the door lock is a keypad rather than a traditional key. Lanna sent a message with a password right before the check-in time so we never had to set up a time or wait to get/return the key. There was a minor issue that needed to be fixed while they stayed, which Lanna responded so quickly to resolve. Her husband visited the place with such polite attitude and fixed it for them right away. There is this adorable cat residing next door, and he likes to visit you often. Kids were in love with this cat :) I can't be more thankful to the host for providing such good care for my guests who had such a long flight to get here. They felt comfortable and happy while they stayed. I strongly recommend to stay at this place. I will definitely return!!!

We had a great time! Peter and Kelly were excellent and generous hosts! The apartment is very nice and worked great! We will definitely consider staying here again on a future trip to Chicago!

AndrewAugust 2016

Peter and Kelly's home was so beautiful, clean, spacious and just perfect for my stay in Wilmette. They were so hospitable, and welcomed me in from the moment I arrived. They were even so kind as to lend me their bike for the week that I was there which just made my trip. I hope to stay here again real soon.

GeoffreyJune 2016

Peter and Kelly were amazing. The location is great, the apartment was beautiful. Everything was immaculate. Peter and Kelly stocked the kitchen with muffins, coffee, fruit, yogurt, soy milk, granola ..... They knew that we were in town to watch my son run the Chicago Marathon, so they even provided traditional marathon cow bells for us!!! Talk about going the additional (26.2) mile.

DanielOctober 2016

Peter and Kelly were the quintessential hosts! This lovely apartment was warm, inviting, clean, beautifully appointed and the perfect location for our family guests. Right around the corner in a beautiful neighborhood that is a walk to everything location. Lots of lovely touches and treats. I would highly recommend this option. Particularly great for visiting scholars working at Northwestern University!

pattiNovember 2016

This is a charming, sunlit apartment in a historic Wilmette neighborhood. Peter and Kelly are warm and gracious hosts who went out of their way to make me feel at home. The apartment is spotless, spacious, quiet and comfortable. I loved the garden view and awaking to bird song each morning.

NancyApril 2016

We couldn't be happier with our stay at Peter and Kelly's house. They were very warm and welcoming, and even stocked the fridge with breakfast items. We really felt that they went to a lot of effort to help us feel at home. The neighborhood is amazing, very safe and walkable, with shops/restaurants and the Metra just a few blocks away. We would definitely stay with Peter and Kelly again in the future.

ZachJuly 2016

My wife and I arrived on Saturday evening and Peter was there to meet us and give us all the information we needed to get settled and find a good place to get some late dinner. In the end we did not actually meet Kelly, but Peter was a perfectly gracious host. He was charming, knowledgeable and approachable. Peter had a genuine interest in making sure that we enjoyed our stay. Peter and Kelly's house is beautiful and the apartment is spacious and, well kept. They provided a collection of quality foods to have on hand and there is a nice supermarket within walking distance if you find you need something extra. Wilmette is a gorgeous neighborhood, filled with beautiful homes and tree lined streets. It's a pleasure walk through the neighborhood to Alchemy Coffee and Bake House to get some great coffee and delicious scones. We would happily stay there again and recommend it to friends.

MarkOctober 2016

Peter and Kelly are the nicest people! All was great and as listed. They even had the kitchen stocked! Breakfast foods,soups and snacks as well as coffee maker and other beverages! The neighborjphood was lovely,beautiful homes and a brick street! So quaint! I highly recommend their home!

That is great place to stay. A nice neighborhood. A very reposible host.

shervinOctober 2016

We had an amazing stay with a great breakfast made for us and so much respect. There was a perfect amount of communication and we got privacy when we needed it. In the morning we biked to a nearby beach which was beautiful. We wouldn't have known about it if it weren't for Lily. Great place to stay!

VeronicaOctober 2016

Sandy's home was great and she was a fantastic host. She communicated well via text and phone call about my check-in and also just touching base during my stay. She even provided an nice welcome snack and toiletries for use during my stay. Very comfortable king size bed, large room and private bathroom, and very private area of her home. She was very respectful of my privacy, but was also very nice to interact with. I was very busy while in town and staying at her home was a treat. Will definitely stay again next time I am in the area!

You will be happy you stayed with them. We most definitely were and hope to go back again. :)

MariaApril 2016

We loved our stay with Peter and Kelly! They were so friendly and welcoming. The house was beautiful and well maintained. We stayed to attend the Nebraska vs Northwestern football game, and the proximity to Ryan Field was great! We really enjoyed our weekend there and would definitely stay again!

AmySeptember 2016

We cannot wait for the opportunity to return to Peter and Kelly's beautiful home! We enjoyed sitting on the front porch and the apartment itself was clean and comfortable. The neighborhood was safe with a lot of spots to visit and eat within an easy walk. The hosts were very thoughtful!

MollyJuly 2016

I couldn't have found a nicer and better place to spend my short time in Chicago than in this charming little appartment in a beautiful house. Peter and Kelly made me feel extremely welcome, asked about my needs and were very pleasent hosts. I loved the appartment. As you would expect, it has the classic charm of the 19th century, but lovingly cared for, nice kitchen, very comfortable bed and super clean and convenient bathroom. Short: It was even better than I had hoped. I loved sitting on the sofa drinking a Glarus beer after exploring the neighborhood with its nice homes. I appreciated the possibility to park my car safely in the back and having my own entrance to the appartment. I enjoyed talking with my hosts and learing about the house and what they had done with it. My only regret is, I didn't bring my wife. When I come back, this will be my first choice to stay. Thank you Peter and Kelly.

MartinDecember 2015

This apartment was exactly as described and looks just like it appears in the photos. Peter and Kelly were very flexible in setting an arrival time and quick to respond to questions; they graciously allowed me to leave my car in their off-street parking space for a few hours after I checked out. During the day, you hear cars passing by on the brick streets and the commuter trains on the tracks a couple blocks away. However, all of that traffic ceases overnight. The neighborhood becomes quiet and still; I slept very well. The hosts have since added a TV with cable, in place of one of the plant stands in the living room.

SheenaNovember 2015

Peter and Kelly were exceptional hosts; warm and welcoming and very considerate of their guests needs. The house has a unique and aristocratic ambience, elegantly decorated, and is very conveniently located in East Wilmette. Very close to Metra and local market, everything is within walking distance. I ve found a home away from home and two new friends. A memorable stay! (extended to three weeks from two initially). Many thanks, Peter

PeterJune 2016

We felt very welcome. The space was perfect. They did everything possible to make our stay special. There was breakfast food in the refrigerator, information on the area, he helped carry the luggage. Showed us around the apartment and yard. Very helpful. We left behind a hat, which has already been mailed. Great experience.

CaroleJune 2016

It's been the second time I stayed in the little apartment of Peter and Kelly and there are reasons: It's so great and a relieve to escape the madness of the city and retreat into the the coziness on the 2nd floor of the the beautiful old house. The neighborhood is quiet, the apartment itself nicely furnished. A modern kitchen, a very comfortable bed and a small but clean and neatly furnished bathroom. Since my last stay, the bathtub had been redone and looks brand new. Everything is in perfect working order, exceptionally clean I love the personal touch. I was even allowed to borrow a bicycle to ride down to the beach, the fridge was stacked with fresh food and some goodies I truly appreciated. I'll be back and hope to bring my wife next time.

Elsa was a great host for the weekend we stayed with her. The communication was smooth and she was very welcoming throughout our stay. We even got coffee and cookies for breakfast :) The apartment is as described, the room is quiet and really spacious with its own bathroom. The apartment is right across from the Wilmette train station and just a short walk to the next cafe or Starbucks. We would definitely stay with Elsa again!

I stayed with Elsa for 2 weeks while researching at Northwestern. I had a wonderful stay - Elsa was so helpful and friendly! Location is great, very quiet and safe - beautiful little town. I would definitely stay here again!

ElissaJuly 2015

Elsa is great, very generous and accommodating. Her apartment is very conveniently located right near downtown Willamette, steps from restaurants and the train. The parking is secured underground parking just for her building so that's a huge advantage, and the room is a master suite which provides a lot of privacy.

Elsa was easy to work with, very gracious and welcoming. The room was very nice and private. The plate of homemade, delicious chocolate chip cookies was such a nice touch! If you are driving to this downtown condo, pay attention to the street parking signs and regulations. We were able to park in Elsa's building's garage so it was not a problem the night we stayed with her. The neighborhood is safe and charming. Not too far from Lake Michigan, and very close to the train to downtown Chicago. We would definitely stay with Elsa again!

Elsa is a wonderful host who offered tea and cheesecake when I arrived. She also provided detailed information on options (train or bus) to get from the airport. The room was clean and exactly as pictured. It was a very comfortable and spacious room - reminiscent of what it's like to visit your parent's home. The location is just a minute walk from the train station which takes you straight into the city. It's a pretty neighborhood with the quintessential coffee place around the corner. If you plan to visit Northwestern, it's an easy 20-min walk or a quick train ride away. A great place to stay especially if you're attending a function at Northwestern.

NailaJune 2016

We stayed on weekends at Elsa's house and were very pleasant with the experience. The room is private and spacious. The house is very near to Wilmette station, which makes it convenient to travel to downtown Chicago. More importantly, the neighborhood is safe, there are few eateries , Starbucks, and Wallgreen nearby.

AgusMay 2015

Elsa is a real sweetheart! Very welcoming and fun to talk to! She made sure it was easy to get into secured parking area. We sat up late and watched the election coverage! It was fun! Very hospitable and extremely friendly and easy to talk to!

For a week long visit to Chicago, my daughter and I decided on Elsa’s home, particularly to have a private bath and twin beds at an affordable rate. We got so much more than expected! The train station was a block away, a half hour from downtown Chicago, and Wilmette is a charming village. We enjoyed walking from Elsa’s home to the shore of Lake Michigan’s gorgeous blue waters. Elsa could not have been more helpful. She showed us ways to get around in our strange new surroundings and was both friendly and respectful of our privacy. Her artistic interests are apparent in her furnishings; she is a much-traveled person herself. We warmly recommend a stay with Elsa.

Parking on premises.

This private, downstairs space has a big bed in a large space and a curtained-off area with a twin bed. There is a sofa and TV in the main room for the guest only. Upstairs you may use the host's kitchen, bathroom and living room. This is a quiet neighborhood, very peaceful.
Upstairs you may use the host's kitchen, bathroom and living room. (Owner has own bathroom, so the one in the hall is for guests only.)
I have lived here most of my life and can help you figure out how to get around and find most anything you'd dream of wanting. I am a musician, author and artist and know many in the Chicago area and can tell you cool, interesting places for entertainment.

Wilmette is a small suburb, a short drive or train ride to downtown Chicago, and next to trendy college town Evanston, IL. We also have a lively music, brew pub and restaurant scene. There are many parks, beaches along Lake Michigan, music venues and theatres. Nearby, check out Billy Corgan's traditional Chinese teahouse, Madame Zuzu's.
A bus stops a half block away that can take you a short ride to the train that takes you anywhere in Chicago. The bus does have limited hours, but you can Uber or taxi anywhere. If you have a car, we are only a mile from the Edens Expressway.
I speak French, German and English. Some Spanish and a teeny bit of Flemish.

Thoroughly enjoyed my stay I must say the description I got was exactly what I received when I entered Anastasia's home. I fully recommended this location to others.

KevinOctober 2015

I very much enjoyed staying in the basement of Anastasia's house. And it just so happened Anastasia was going out of town soon after I arrived ... so I ended up having the whole place to myself. If you're OK staying in the basement, which is quiet and specious, you will very much enjoy your stay. Please also know that Anastasia kindly offered her food, free of charge.

GlennOctober 2014

Anastasia is a great host and very welcoming. I loved having a lot of space. The only problem is the house is open place and so the basement is open to all. Sometimes this can be a little noisy - so earplugs useful!

CassandraSeptember 2016

Had a wonderful time staying with Anastasia. She was a very welcoming host and I would recommend the space for anyone visiting the area.

ChristopherSeptember 2015

Pros: Anastasia is very nice and interesting. She was very helpful with any questions I had. The place is clean , but not super tidy, so at least it gives you a sense of a lived home. The basement is spacious and even though I didn't use it, it has a living room space with your own big screen tv. The house has easy access and parking which was a plus. Cons: the house is very busy with lots of people all the time (3 people + baby + dog + everyday guests for piano lessons + other Airbnb guests that also stayed in the house) It can get crowded. The basement has no door, so anybody can come down any time. The host went into my room daily and moved things around to her liking, which I felt violated and unsafe with my belongings. There was no space in the fridge, due to so many people in the house, so I had to keep my food with me in the basement. Since there is no door, her dog ate my food and my dog's food on a daily basis. I decided to leave early. I am in the middle of moving to Chicago which is already a hassle, and everything I own is in my car or in their basement. I recommend the place if you are staying for a couple of days, and is very clear about privacy with the host. I would recommend the host to get a door to the basement for privacy and safety.

DanielaOctober 2016

From the moment we booked with her, Anastasia communicated everything we needed to know without needing to be asked. When we arrived, we were greeted with a delicious meal and everything we needed to make ourselves comfortable. The room is great, cozy yet spacious. Which was great since we were traveling with two dogs. :) we were even blessed with a private piano performance by our extremely talented host! :)

LindaJune 2015

She is romantic and warmhearted,feel like a mother of art and I really enjoy stay in such a new HOME.Love you Anastasia!

DoraJune 2016

The room in downstairs is a private room for family or couples. Anastasia provides all facilities I need and very friendly to me who is visiting American first time. Also she is very generous and patience to my children. She is willing to introduce me to her friends and families. The only thing I feel pity is there's no private bathroom to use due to I am a long-term guest. All in all, the house is lovely and well location. If I have chance, I will come again.

Your Airbnb stay begins in the Arctic village of Longyearbyen, Norway. Depending on the itinerary you may opt to spend the Night at the North Pole or spend a night at the Barneo Ice Station. Come ready for adventure with (website hidden)

DAY 1
The morning is yours to explore the village or participate in one of the many guided snowmobile or dogsled tours that depart daily. We can make recommendations for dining and activities to maximize your free time in town. A pre-flight briefing is scheduled for the afternoon.
DAY 2
Weather permitting, you'll fly to 89 degrees North and touchdown at the Barneo Ice Camp. You'll be invited into the heated tents and welcomed to Barneo. This is one of the most unusual basecamps in the world.
Your trip to the North Pole will take place via MI-8 helicopter that is stationed at Barneo. The 20-40 minute flight will land you as close as possible to the geographic North Pole, where all time zones converge and every direction is south. A grand celebration will take place, including champagne toasts, dozens of photographs to document your arrival and a call home from the top of the world. The duration of our visit is largely determined by weather conditions and will likely last between 45 minutes to 2 hours.
Participants on our North Pole Flight with Overnight at Barneo will settle in for a cozy "night" on the ice. Of course "night-time" is only a word at this time of year you will actually be sleeping under the 24 hour sunlight of the polar spring. Darkened sleeping tents aid with your sleeping. Around the camp expeditioners from around the world may be preparing for their attempts to reach the North Pole by ski, dogsled, parachute, or scuba. And researchers from all corners of the globe may be conducting research. There is never a dull moment at Barneo! All meals will be provided during your stay at Barneo.
Participants on the North Pole Same Day Flight will return to Longyearbyen and be transferred to their hotel. This is the official end of the expedition.
DAY 3
Participants on our North Pole Flight with Overnight at Barneo will wake up and dress in warm clothing for the short walk across camp to the mess tent for breakfast. You will spend the morning at Barneo, preparing for your departure and saying good-bye to new friends. You may want to take one more trek around to photograph this historically significant basecamp, and to soak up the sites and sounds of the polar pack ice. The return flight to Longyearbyen usually gets you back in time for an evening meal and festivities. This is the official end of the expedition.
Your program is completely guided by the experienced staff from PolarExplorers.
PolarExplorers is the premier polar expedition guiding company. What makes us different? Our history. Just ask our hundreds of previous team members. They will tell you that we know what we are doing and we do it right. Contact us for a list of references!

You never know what might be going on at the North Pole during your visit. It could be quiet, with nothing to look at but the sculpted snow and ice of the Polar Sea or there may be sky divers landing, expedition teams arriving, or a couple getting married.
People on our flights have ranged in age from 1 to 81 years! All of these trips require that you can climb several stairs into and out of the plane as well as being able to walk across the uneven terrain of the pack ice. We can assist you as necessary.

Anastsia is a lovely, eclectic hostess I enjoyed our conversations and her hospitality.

Anastasia informed me fast en friendly. But i expected more from the room and house . I the weekend there is no public transport . You need a car and I didn't had one so it was for me a problem

AdrieOctober 2014

Nice and clean place to stay. Only complaint is I felt pressured to sit and talk that made us late to our event . If your looking for a place to stay and want a lot of conversations then this is the place for you. I can say I enjoyed the snacks. I don't recommend a married couple to stay but good for singles.

APRILAugust 2014

Anastasia was a very friendly and generous host, and she cooked often and loved to share. The master bedroom was as expected - clean and roomy.

SherryOctober 2016

Description accurate. House not much to look at outside, but inside is a real artist/musician residence with lots of interesting items and books everywhere. The room was quite private and quiet and the bed - a futon - I found amazingly comfortable. Only complaint: bedroom needs a 3-prong outlet to charge iPhones. Only met the host when I arrived, was alone rest of time. Interesting person, interesting place!
